'Morgue monster' David Fuller finally caught after 30 years by grim detail on victim's tights

David Fuller brutally murdered Wendy Knell and Caroline Pierce in 1987. His crimes were only discovered by chance three decades later, along with his other hideous offences



David Fuller, dubbed the "morgue monster," was caught over 30 years after murdering Wendy Knell and Caroline Pierce in 1987. DNA from Caroline's tights, enhanced with new technology and matched against the national DNA database, led to Fuller's identification in 2019. A search of his home revealed evidence of sexually abusing corpses in hospital morgues between 2005 and 2020. The article also discusses how the national DNA database aided in solving other cold cases, including the murders of Melanie Road and Colette Aram.
